So, if your current build with NFS breaks at exactly the same place
as the old one, be sure to show the log to me, because then it can
well be caused by ./configure issues that should be fixed (i think
we have pretty much ruled out parallel build issues already).

On the other hand, if your current build with NFS goes through or
breaks at a completely different place, following Stuart's advice
is important, because then it would likely seem NFS-related.

Yours,
